Huawei is preparing for a big event on Thursday (September 19), with a new watch (the Huawei Watch GT 5, possibly also the Watch D2) and a new tablet on the way. Well, new to the global market, anyway, it’s almost certainly the Huawei MatePad Pro 12.2 (2024) that was announced in China in August.
The teaser posts so far mention the Tandem OLED PaperMate display, which made its debut with the Pro 12.2. It’s a dual-layer OLED with higher brightness (up to 2,000 nits), greater endurance (should last three times longer than regular OLED), and 33% lower power consumption to boot.

PaperMate reduces glare and reflections (up to 60%) and delivers a paper-like writing experience thanks to the Huawei M-Pencil stylus. Drawing and sketching is a major selling point of this tablet, thanks to the Huawei GoPaint app. By the way, the display runs at 144Hz, so it feels more responsive when you draw.

The tablet will also feature a keyboard cover, which can tilt the screen downwards (making it easier to draw) or raise it up so you can use it as a tablet.

The MatePad Pro 12.2 (2024) will not be alone, Huawei will also launch the MatePad 12X in addition to the two watches. The Huawei MatePad 12X could be the MatePad Air (2024), as its rear suggests, but no information has been given about it in the X post.
